美国初中生探索机场内部,追寻自己的职业梦
An educational tour in the airport
YOU may have travelled by airplane before, but do you know how these big “birds”fly in the sky?
This month, a group of US middle school students visited Mitchell International Airport. They got the chance to see how pilots work and learn things behind the scenes.
The students are taking pa rt in the project Be the Spark Education Tours. They go to factories, IT companies, newspaper offices and other places to see what jobs are really about. This time, they got the chance to fly.
“It is really cool to see the pilots and to actually look inside the scenes,”said seventh-grader Kyra Aguillard.
Along with other students, Aguillard went through security checkpoints (安全检查处), walked on the tarmac (停机坪), and even went into the cockpit (驾驶舱). The buttons and gadgets (器械) in the pilot’s room really excited her.
The 13-year-old girl has made up her mind to be a pilot in the future.
During the trip, students were also given lectures about how to buil d a plane and how to make it fly. Although they’ve all learned the basic theory, this lecture was much more vivid and unde rstandable.
“We wish to offer the students a good chance to see things they are learning in math, science and even in the reading class really apply to (应用到) the real world,”said Mary Steinbrecher, director of the project, “so they can open their eyes and minds to a successful future.

William Wegman is a painter, photographer, and writer. He is famous for his works in the world. Wegman has many art collections in three museums in the United States. But of all the works, he is best known for one thin g: his dogs.
The dogs are Weimaraners — cute animals that like to run around and play. This is part of what makes Wegman’s photos so unusual. Although his dogs always want to run, jump, and play, Wegman gets them to stand still for funny photos. Many of the photos are famous.
This year, Wegman’s children’s book called Flo and Wendell came out. The book is about dogs Flo and Topper. In the book, Wegman uses pi ctures of real dogs but paints (着色) them onto bodies of people, making the dogs look like humans. It is funny that you see dogs act like a human.
